is it love?.. nah playa!

for a while now ive been thinking about he concept of love, and what it truly means to be in love. with all this talk about the meaning to be IN love, i decided ro look for a poem about NOT being in love...well, atleast not anymore.

im not hurting anymore.

Complacency, or a one-sided relationship can only last so long. The same applies to the feeling of love, wasted on the wrong person. It does eventually stop hurting and becomes a vague memory.

When we first met, we felt so much;
I thought you were the only one.
As time went by, you made me cry;
You didn't seem to care at all.

You had chances to make it work;
But you just took me for granted.
The love I had was big and true :
Even affection, you never wanted.

Time and again I wanted to be more;
Much more than just a friend.
But you liked it the way it was;
Though I told you I could see the end.

You had your chance, well quite a few;
'Cos you said you'd find a way.
Your words didn't mean a thing;
Your love disappeared or went astray.

So I've left you and your uncaring spirit;
Gone too far away to see your face.
You can't con me any more;
I won't even listen to your voice.

You're not the first thing on my mind;
When I wake from my sleep.
I have loving arms around me now;
And I'm not hurting over you.
